This Newest Bike-Rental App Is the Answer to Your Manila Traffic Woes

We’ve all had our fair share of grueling experiences from Metro Manila traffic—from having a hard time hailing a taxi to staying in the same place for hours. By the time rush hour strikes, there’s just no escape. Literally, sometimes.

What if we tell you that you can now go around the city by renting a bike online? Ofo, a bike-rental app from Beijing, is ready to hit Manila streets. Dubbed as the “Uber for bikes,” Ofo is the first-ever non-docking, bike-sharing platform in the world. Meaning, you can park it anywhere (responsibly, of course!). It has already launched in some parts of the world including Singapore, United Kingdom, and China.
